FAQs

Why is aluminium suitable for soffits in all climates?

Knotwood aluminium soffit systems are ideal for harsh conditions, from coastal humidity to extreme heat or cold – without warping or rotting.

Does aluminium cladding on soffits affect energy efficiency?

Yes. Knotwood aluminium soffits improve airflow, reduce moisture and reflective finishes help limit heat buildup in warm climates.

Can using aluminium for soffits help with ventilation?

Knotwood aluminium soffit systems allow airflow through the gap between the soffit and substrate. This ventilation helps reduce moisture build-up, preventing condensation, mould and potential structural damage.

Does aluminium on soffits contribute to fire safety?

Aluminium is non-combustible, making it ideal for high fire risk areas. It adds protection by creating a safe barrier around roof edges.

Can aluminium products be installed on existing soffits?

Yes. Knotwood aluminium cladding or batten systems can often be retrofitted over existing soffits. A professional installer can recommend the best approach.
